Configure User Authentication in Web Service

Hi,
I have a receiver soap channel that consume a web service with user authentication. I am setting the user/password in Connection Parameters section, but I'm getting the error from the web service:
Incoming message does not contain required Security header
Any ideas about what's wrong in my channel?
Regards,
Ismael

Hi,
It doesn't work in my case (It's said in the first post).
I have tested it using PI 7.1 using:
- "Message Protocol=SOAP 1.1." and filling user/password in "Configure User Authentification" and I get the error:
soap fault: WSDoAllReceiver: Incoming message does not contain required Security header
- "Message Protocol=Axis ." I get the error:
com.sap.engine.interfaces.messaging.api.exception.MessagingException:
javax.ejb.EJBException: Exception in getMethodReady() for stateless bean sap.com/com.sap.aii.axis.app*xml|com.sap.aii.adapter.axis.ejb.jar*xml|AFAdapterBean;

SUP user authentication for web services

Hi there.
Has anyone in the comunity had any experience with building Web Service based Mobile Business Object (MBO) in SUP 1.5.2. We have built a mobile application for a blackberry device which consumes two ERP web services. The application deploys successfully and runs on the blackberry device just fine. However, untill now the user credentials needed to authenticate a consumer to a web service has been hard-coded into the mobile business object. This, from an accountability point of view, is not an acceptible model (i.e. all mobile users would be logging in to the ERP backend with 1 common user ID).
Has anyone had any experience and could suggest an an alternative solution to this that would support accountability i.e. map SUP users to ERP users, trusted connections etc. and is this possible with SUP 1.5.2?
S

Actually, SUP 1.5.2 just provides the HTTP basic authentication for WS-MBO. It is enable that to create 'username' and 'password' on the WS-MBO as two input parameters. Thus, you can design your device app in SUP to prompt the dialog to accpet the username and password before you access your WS-MBO. Similar, if your web-service has input argument for username and password, you also can design a dialog like above.

User Authentication for Web Services

Hi,
I am developing a web services that resides in Intranet. Thus, would like to implement application layer of user authetication, i.e. to match the input user name and password against Database record through a web service logon() method. If authentication is passed, the client program is allowed to call subsequence web service methods, else exception needs to be thrown when calling subsequence methods.
As understand that each method call to web services is treated seperately. Thus, how can we implement the authentication so that the client program only passes in the user name and password at once through logon() method, instead of perfoming the authentication for each method?
Appreciate the advice. Thanks.

Hi,
But, I need to develop the web services logon method using WSDL which generated the LogonBindingImpl.java, instead of web services using EJB bean.
Besides, the Web Service logon method (LogonBindingImpl.java) need to accept the input user name and password to check with the user name and password that stored in database table through the EJB bean. If checking successful, client program is allowed to invoke other WebServices method, else login failed exception need to be thrown when client calling other web services methods.
Appreciate the advice here on how to achieve that. Thanks.

User Authentication in Web Dynpro Java

Hi guys,
I was just wondering how user authentication can be achieved in WDJ? In Web Dynpro ABAP this comes for free when you launch an application. However, in WDJ we can deploy and call the URL without any authentication at all. Is there a way to configure this or do we really have to code this? Thanks! Generous points will be awarded!

Authentication in web service

hello Gurus,
I have scenario from Proxy to SOAP.
Here i am using SOAP Adapter.
My receiver needs security info (like user id and password) in soap header like below.
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:q0="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/commerce/member" xmlns:q1="http://www.openapplications.org/oagis/9" xmlns:q2="http://www.openapplications.org/oagis/9/unqualifieddatatypes/1.1" xmlns:q3="http://www.ibm.com/xmlns/prod/commerce/foundation" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">

</wsse:UsernameToken>
</wsse:Security>
</soapenv:Header>
<soapenv:Body>
I tried using option Configure User Authentication, but it is not adding userid and password information in SOAP Header.
I was going through couple of forum questions and they are suggesting using Axis framework for this.
Is there any other solution then this? or do i need to go with Axis framework option?
Thanks,
Hetal

I took approach for Axis adapter.
I have configured Axis Receiver adapter.

Configure User Authentication on SOAP Receiver Adapter

Hi,
I am calling a WebService that is available over the internet. We are on PI 7.1 and I am using a Soap Receiver Adapter. The configuration was downloaded from SAP in a partner package. The development in the package was done on XI3.
I need to call the WS with user authentication. I've selected the "Configure User Authentication" radio button and entered the username and password. The message fail with "HTTP 401 Unauthorized" and it is because the user details are not being send from the adapter. If I copy the XML payload to a XML tool, like Stylus Studio, I can call the webservice successfully. I've read through numerous blogs and messages on this Forum, including adding the adapter module (MessageTransformBean) and changing the Conversion Parameters without any luck.
Any suggestions please?
Thanks

I am calling a WebService that is available over the internet.
I copy the XML payload to a XML tool, like Stylus Studio, I can call the webservice successfully.
normally the webservices that we use (from internet) are freely available...meaning they dont require any username/ password.
if no credentials are required then do not select Configure User Authentication...uncheck it....if user-details are provided by the Webservice, then use these details (not your XI/ PI user details) in the channel.
Are you using any user-name/ password while testing from SOAP tools?

Abhishek.

SOAP REC Adapter....Configure User Authentication

Hi
I have a Receiver Soap Adapter parmater called "Configure User Authentication". If I check this option again we have two fileds which are to be filled with "User" and "passowrd". These user and password are used as authentication to access webservice. My webservice team claims XI is not sending those credentials to webservice during request. How can I check whether XI is sending the user and password information to webservice during requesst ??
Regards
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
there is an option :Check OSS Note no 856597
Download the tcpgw.zip ...extract...open the aiitcpgw.jar file..and follow as expalined in the blog
/people/varadharajan.krishnasamy/blog/2007/01/09/troubleshooting-soap-message--xi
you will get the xml payload and there you can check the username and password is passing into the webservice.

How to assign Tasks to other users using Exchange Web Service.

How to assign Tasks to other users using Exchange Web Service.
Any workaround also would help

Hi Glen,
I am trying to use ExtendedPropertyType and put in UpdaterItemType as in this code as below. Although it is not updating the Owner
field.
I have tried it both by Propertyname and PropertyID. Although new custom property's canbe
added but to change an existing one like 'Owner' ? Would this be the right method.
2. And Is ProprertyID a fixed value as 0x811f or does it need to be calculated.
3. Is 'Owner' the right propertname for assigning a task ?
Thanks a lot.
Please see code below for reference.
PathToExtendedFieldType pathExtended = new PathToExtendedFieldType();
//pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetId = DistinguishedPropertySetType.PublicStrings;
pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetId = DistinguishedPropertySetType.Task;
pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetIdSpecified = true;
pathExtended.PropertyId = 0x811f;
pathExtended.PropertyIdSpecified = true;
//pathExtended.PropertyName = "Owner";
pathExtended.PropertyType = MapiPropertyTypeType.String;
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty = new ExtendedPropertyType[1];
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0] = new ExtendedPropertyType();
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0].ExtendedFieldURI = pathExtended;
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0].Item = "[email protected]";
SetItemFieldType set1 = new SetItemFieldType();
set1.Item = pathExtended;
set1.Item1 = ciSetAT;
UpdateItemType request = new UpdateItemType();
request.ItemChanges = new ItemChangeType[1] { new ItemChangeType() };
request.ItemChanges[0].Item = itemId;
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates = new ItemChangeDescriptionType[2];
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates[0] = setstart;
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates[1] = set1;

Portal Authentication from web service

I would like to run a web service on a remote machine that checks if the user of the web service exists as a portal user.
My initial thought was to just log the user in whenever they attempt to use the web service and then log them out at the end. I have researched the AuthContext class and attempted a test implementation however it errors looking for certain AM Property files.
Perhaps I should just access the directory server directly? Basically, I just want to restrict usage of the web service to the existing portal users.
If anyone could offer any suggestions it would be appreciated. (Code examples or snippets would be appreciated)
Thanks in advance...
Jason

Hi,
1) If your webservice is on the same network:
- Just bind to LDAP (this is the fastes way)
2) OR You can also use identity SDK to connect
to your instance and receive AMUser object.
3) If you are not on the same network( SRAP access):
You can create a "stand alone" jsp or servlet which
doing (1) or (2) and your webservice talks over https to this servlet.
4) Logging user to portal is too much overhead and
at the end you don't know if user is a portal user or
just has login privilege to identityserver...

Alex :-)

Create User for Target (Terminal Adapter) with private key authentication through web service

Hi
I have a question about Terminal adapter.
My current aim is to create process "Execute script through ssh on remote Linux system" with input parameters ( login, path to private key, path to script)
It was very helpful to find this discussion https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3543289#3543289 .
Is there a way to create Public-key Authenticated Admin Runtime User with private key for authentication by using NB webservice ?

I will second Shaun's comment...
Unfortunately, it looks like this is not possible in 2.3.X. (That is you can create the user but the fields you need to use to configure that user properly do not appear to be exposed to the Northbound Web Service).
It looks like something that will be fixed in a future release of Process Orchestrator.

Adding Authentication to Web Service using JDeveloper

Hi Gurus,
I am new to weblogic 10.3 and Jdeveloper 11.1.3. Using Jdeveloper, I imported few packages from database , right clicked and published them as a webservice on a weblogic server. I did not select any WLS policies. The web service is working fine. Now i want to add some basic authorization (username/password) to this webservice.
Which policy should i use ?
Where should i configure this username\password so that all the webservices uses same user for authenctication ? Do i have to create this user on the weblogic server? If yes then how.
Thanks in Advance.
Jack

Hi,
If you are using JAXWS based WebService then you can give it a try:
http://weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/01/09/username-token-in-jaxws-webservice/
This sample demonstrates ..How we can use UserName/Password Authentication in JAXWS Service. This will be very Easy for you to develop using JDeveloper...U need to Just the add Following XML file as a Policy inside your Application.
Using the following Policy:
<font color=maroon>
<?xml version=”1.0″?>
<wsp:Policy
xmlns:wsp=”http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/policy”
xmlns:sp=”http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-securitypolicy/200512″>

Trusted Authentication with Web Services SDK

Hi,
I have just configured my BO server to use Trusted Authentication (REMOTE_USER) and It works with Infoview so I don't need the logon page to enter user and password.
I also have an .NET application that uses Web Services SDK and I would like to use Trusted Authentication on it.
Is there any code to access to BO using Web Services SDK?
Before the configuration, I was using this code:
string m_strURL="http://server:8080/dswsbobje/services/Session";
BusinessObjects.DSWS.Connection oConnection = new BusinessObjects.DSWS.Connection(m_strURL);
BusinessObjects.DSWS.Session m_wiSession = new Session(oConnection);
BusinessObjects.DSWS.Session.EnterpriseCredential oEC = new EnterpriseCredential();
oEC.Login = strLogin;
oEC.Password = strPassword;
oEC.AuthType = "secLDAP";
SessionInfo oSI = m_wiSession.Login(oEC);
Now, I want to use Trusted Authentication in my .NET application so I wouldn't have to enter user and password.
I have looking for some code, but I haven't found it yet. I hope you could help me.
Thanks,
Sandra

Hi, Ted,
I'm trying to use Trusted Authentication to access QaaWS (via WSDL/Axis, NOT Xcelsius). I enabled it from CMC, put the shared secret in a correct location (win32_x86 directory) and made the change to dsws.properties file, then I restarted tomcat. However, the system failed to login. Below is the trace log. Is Trusted Authentication supported for QaaWS? Thanks!

Creation of LDAP User for Discoverer Web Services

Hi all,
this isn't a Discoverer issue per se, but I couldn't find where to post this in other forums.
After installing the web services patch for Discoverer (5648158), I need to create a bipublisher user
in OIDDAS right? However our installation seems a bit ***** up. So I need to do it from the command line.
I found some instructions in: here
and created the following bipublisher.ldif file:
cn=bipublisher,cn=users,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass=top
objectclass=person
objectclass=inetorgperson

However when I try to login in the web services from Discoverer, I still get invalid credentials
Any clues? Thanks
PS I'm talking about the login web service method, not the basic web authentication. I am past that.

Nevermind, it seems the server was just a bit slow to take the new account under consideration.

Unauthenticated user when using web service

The business methods are called fine, but when I try to access the KM Resource Context I get the following exception
ResourceContext.setUser called with unauthenticated user MJOH
In the web service I have turned on basic authentication, and it's obviously trying to use my user MJOH. I have logged on to the portal containing KM to verify that my user indeed works.
Both the web service and KM are running on the same J2EE-server.
In the web service descriptor I have the following settings
      <global-features>
        <feature name="http://www.sap.com/webas/630/soap/features/authentication" protocol="SecurityProtocol">
          <property name="AuthenticationMethod" value="BasicAuth"/>
          <property name="AuthenticationMechanism" value="HTTP"/>
          <property name="SupportsSSO2Authentication" value="false"/>
        </feature>
      </global-features>
Does anyone know if there are more settings that need to be done?

There are intermittent problems with JSF pages and WS DataControl in the preview. This is logged as a bug.
